I am 56 and this will be my last new vehicle. Only bought one other and it was a '93 Ford Ranger Splash.
Always liked the Baywatch Ranger Splash!

Well I will start off admitting that I am 75.....choosing base model as extra vehicle to just putt around in with top off.....the only time I will be off road....is if I get run off the road.....enjoy all
70, basically the same logic being employed here. 😁

My fellow elder millennials! Fond memories of riding in my dad's Bronco as a child of the 80's. My dad is pretty pumped to see his daughter get one now. Hello from O-HI-O!

30 in May. Married with two kids, 6 and 6 months. Going with a 4-door BB, so there’s another seat in case we have another!

reserved at 48, receiving at? hopefully 49, possibly a 50th birthday present though lol This will be my first and possibly last brand new car

Always wanted an EB, but they were always just out of my price range. As soon as I had enough they gained popularity and the price would jump out of my range again. I've been following the comeback since before the original concept in 2004 debuted, so much happier with what we are ending up with. For me they pulled the right cues, just like with my current '06 Mustang. Now I can have my "EB" but with all the reliability (ish lol) of a new car... still wish I had an original but this will be awesome too.

32 and based on my family history, I'm in midlife-crisis territory.

Married, no kids, so 2 door for us.

I predict the new Bronco will have a moderating effect on EB prices. Similar to how the JK and now JL Wrangler have given people options instead of having to mess with old YJ/CJs.

Sure, the dedicated old 4x4 fans still must have an EB. As an old car guy, I get that mindset. But the wider subset of persons who are not wedded to old 4x4s, will now have a new Bronco option. Top/doors off fun and customizable. Some people will see that and wonder, why am I spending 30k+ on some old truck that beats me up and eats gasoline.

I think the new Bronco will knock down some demand for EBs, probably persons who should not have bought an EB in the first place. So you might have a shot at an EB at some point, if prices and the gentrification are moderated.

39, single. Just me and toys; companion here and there. Friends all married and have kids. I'm the crazy one who doesn't wanna die of old age covered in 💩. Almost lost my life getting shot at 25, lost my career and spent 10 years paying off debt. Now I'm towards the top of a new one. So I'm kinda YOLO nowadays.

Biography otw 🤣.. j/k

I'm 65 and had my midlife crisis 20 years ago when I bought my corvette. But I'm having a hard time getting in and out of the car, so I'm selling it and getting a Bronco.

So I'm not buying a Bronco because of some kind of mid or old age crisis - I'm buying a Bronco to lessen back and knee pain.
I had an early and late midlife crises. The early was a Mustang Convertible and the late a Saturn Sky. The Sky was fun but a royal pain to get in and out of so I sold them both. I'm 60 now so I hope the Bronco will be my last vehicle. I learned to drive in my dads 71 and have waited years for the motor company to start making the Bronco again.
